Solve.A vendor has learned that, by pricing hot dogs at $1.50, sales will reach 134 hot dogs per day. Raising the price to $2.50 will cause the sales to fall to 94 hot dogs per day. Let y be the number of hot dogs the vendor sells at x dollars each. Write a linear equation that relates the number of hot dogs sold per day, y, to the price x.

A. y = 40x + 74
B. y = -40x + 194
C. y = -40x - 194
D. y = - x +
